Here's how you can use your own icon when someone bookmarks your page...
Create a 16x16 color (16 colors) graphic (cannot be a bitmap). Save it as favicon.ico (or whatever you want to name it) and place it on your root directory. Use <link REL = "SHORTCUT ICON" href="http://yourwebsite.com/favicon.ico">
It only works with Internet Explorer 5, however.
For example...
<head>
<link REL = "SHORTCUT ICON" href="http://yourwebsite.com/favicon.ico">
</head>
In order to create the icon you may need to download a program that will allow you to create your graphic in the .ico format.
